Build system changes + a. Unix build system changes + b. Windows build system changes + + ======================== 1. Internal API changes ======================== - a. stat/lstat support + a. virtual_file_ex +virtual_file_ex takes now a TSRM context as last parameter: +CWD_API int virtual_file_ex(cwd_state *state, const char *path, + verify_path_func verify_path, int use_realpath TSRLS_DC); + + + b. stat/lstat support + lstat is now available on all platforms. On unix-like platform php_sys_lstat is an alias to lstat (when avaible). On Windows it is now available using php_sys_lstat. php_sys_stat and php_sys_lstat usage is recommended instead of calling lstat directly, to ensure portability. - b. readlink support + c. readlink support + readlink is now available on all platforms. On unix-like platform php_sys_readlink is an alias to readlink (when avaible). On Windows it is now available using php_sys_readlink. php_sys_readlink usage is recommended instead of calling readlink directly, to ensure portability. + + + d. layout of some core ZE structures (zend_op_array, zend_class_entry, ...) + +. zend_function.pass_rest_by_reference is replaced by + ZEND_ACC_PASS_REST_BY_REFERENCE in zend_function.fn_flags +. zend_function.return_reference is replaced by ZEND_ACC_RETURN_REFERENCE + in zend_function.fn_flags +. zend_arg_info.required_num_args removed. it was needed only for internal + functions. Now the first arg_info for internal function (which has special + meaning) is represented by zend_internal_function_info structure. +. zend_op_array.size, size_var, size_literal, current_brk_cont, + backpatch_count moved into CG(context), because they are used only during + compilation. +. zend_op_array.start_op is moved into EG(start_op), because it's used + only for 'interactive' execution of single top-level op-array. +. zend_op_array.done_pass_two is replaced by ZEND_ACC_DONE_PASS_TWO in + zend_op_array.fn_flags. +. op_array.vars array is trimmed (reallocated) during pass_two. +. zend_class_entry.constants_updated is replaced by + ZEND_ACC_CONSTANTS_UPDATED in zend_class_entry.ce_flags +. the size of zend_class_entry is reduced by sharing the same memory space + by different information for internal and user classes. + See zend_class_inttry.info union. + + + e. Zend\zend_fast_cache.h + +It should not have been used anymore since php5, but now this header has +been removed. The following macros are not available anymore: + +ZEND_FAST_ALLOC(p, type, fc_type) +ZEND_FAST_FREE(p, fc_type) +ZEND_FAST_ALLOC_REL(p, type, fc_type) +ZEND_FAST_FREE_REL(p, fc_type) + +Use emalloc, emalloc_rel, efree or efree_rel instead. + + + f. Streams that enclose private streams + +Some streams, like the temp:// stream, may enclose private streams. If the +outer stream leaks due to a programming error or is not exposed through a +zval (and therefore is not deleted when all the zvals are gone), it will +be destroyed on shutdown. +The problem is that the outer usually wants itself to close the inner stream, +so that it may do any other shutdown action that requires the inner stream to +be live (e.g. commit data to it). If the outer stream is exposed through a +zval and the inner one isn't, this is not a problem because the outer stream +will be freed when the zval is destroyed, which happens before the resources +are destroyed on shutdown. +On resource list shutdown, the cleanup happens in reverse order of resource +creation, so if the inner stream was created in the opener of the outer stream, +it will be destroyed first. +The following functions were added to the streams API to force a predictable +destruction order: + +PHPAPI php_stream *php_stream_encloses(php_stream *enclosing, php_stream *enclosed); +#define php_stream_free_enclosed(stream_enclosed, close_options) +PHPAPI int _php_stream_free_enclosed(php_stream *stream_enclosed, int close_options TSRMLS_DC); + +Additionally, the following member was added to php_stream: + + struct _php_stream *enclosing_stream; + +and the following macro was added: + +#define PHP_STREAM_FREE_IGNORE_ENCLOSING 32 + +The function php_stream_encloses declares the first stream encloses the second. +This has the effect that, when the inner stream is closed from a resource +destructor it will abort and try to free its enclosing stream instead. +To prevent this from happening when the inner stream is freed from the outer +stream, the macro php_stream_free_enclosed should be used instead of +php_stream_free/php_stream_close/php_stream_pclose, or the flag +PHP_STREAM_FREE_IGNORE_ENCLOSING should be directly passed to php_stream_free. +The outer stream cannot abstain, in its close callback, from closing the inner +stream or clear the enclosing_stream pointer in its enclosed stream by calling +php_stream_encloses with the 2nd argument NULL. If this is not done, there will +be problems, so observe this requirement when using php_stream_encloses. + + + g. leak_variable + +The function leak_variable(variable [, leak_data]) was added. It is only +available on debug builds. It increments the refcount of a zval or, if the +second argument is true and the variable is either an object or a resource +it increments the refcounts of those objects instead. + + + h. API Signature changes + +. zend_list_insert + ZEND_API int zend_list_insert(void *ptr, int type TSRMLS_DC); + call: zend_list_insert(a, SOMETYPE TSRMLS_CC); + NB: If zend_list_insert is used to register a resource, + ZEND_REGISTER_RESOURCE could be used instead. + +. php_le_stream_context(TSRMLS_C) + PHPAPI php_stream_context *php_stream_context_alloc(TSRMLS_D) + call: context = php_stream_context_alloc(TSRMLS_C); + +. php_stream_context_alloc + PHPAPI php_stream_context *php_stream_context_alloc(TSRMLS_D); + call: context = php_stream_context_alloc(TSRMLS_C); + +. sapi_get_request_time(TSRMLS_D); + SAPI_API double sapi_get_request_time(TSRMLS_D); + +. sapi_register_default_post_reader + SAPI_API int sapi_register_default_post_reader(void (*default_post_reader)(TSRMLS_D) TSRMLS_DC); + +. sapi_register_treat_data + SAPI_API int sapi_register_treat_data(void (*treat_data)(int arg, char *str, zval *destArray TSRMLS_DC) TSRMLS_DC); + +. sapi_register_input_filter + SAPI_API int sapi_register_input_filter(unsigned int (*input_filter)(int arg, char *var, char **val, unsigned int val_len, unsigned int *new_val_len TSRMLS_DC), unsigned int (*input_filter_init)(TSRMLS_D) TSRMLS_DC); + +. tsrm_win32_access + TSRM_API int tsrm_win32_access(const char *pathname, int mode TSRMLS_DC); + +. popen_ex (win32) + TSRM_API FILE *popen_ex(const char *command, const char *type, const char *cwd, char *env TSRMLS_DC); + +. php_get_current_user + PHPAPI php_get_current_user(TSRMLS_D) + Call: char *user = php_get_current_user(TSRMLS_C); + +. php_idate + PHPAPI php_idate(char format, time_t ts, int localtime TSRMLS_DC) + Call: int ret = php_idate(format, ts, localtime TSRMLS_CC) + +. php_escape_html_entities + (size_t parameters were ints, previous "quote_style" (now flags) has expanded meaning) + PHPAPI char *php_escape_html_entities(unsigned char *old, size_t oldlen, size_t *newlen, int all, int flags, char *hint_charset TSRMLS_DC); + +. php_escape_html_entities_ex + PHPAPI char *php_escape_html_entities_ex(unsigned char *old, size_t oldlen, size_t *newlen, int all, int flags, char *hint_charset, zend_bool double_encode TSRMLS_DC); + +. php_unescape_html_entities + PHPAPI char *php_unescape_html_entities(unsigned char *old, size_t oldlen, size_t *newlen, int all, int flags, char *hint_charset TSRMLS_DC); + + i. + PHPAPI char *expand_filepath_with_mode(const char *filepath, char *real_path, const char *relative_to, size_t relative_to_len, int realpath_mode TSRMLS_DC); + expand_filepath_with_mode lets define how realpath will behave, using one of the existing mode: CWD_EXPAND , CWD_FILEPATH or CWD_REALPATH. + +======================== +2.
